Get your Affilync profile. Call this first to check if you are an affiliate or brand.
AI agents call getUserProfile to retrieve information from Affilync MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves user profile information with no side effects, no data modification, no code execution, and no financial operations. It is a simple query operation that returns user account metadata. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius—misuse would only expose the authenticated user's own profile data, which is already available to them.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'getUserProfile' and description 'Get your Affilync profile' indicate retrieval of user profile data without modification. The phrase 'Call this first to check' suggests read-only status checking.
